DETAILS OF THE COMPANIES Getswift Ltd is an Australian newly listed company which provides a software distribution solution. This is the same company that was used in the Individual assignment. It is expected that students research this company beyond just the financial statements (especially for Part B) Pursuit Pty Ltd has been a target customer of GetSwfit's for many years. It is a large distribution company which services supermarkets. The acquisition of Pursuit would allow GetSwift to increase its scale and penetration into the market. The actual trading business of Pursuit is much larger than Getswift but it has been operating as a family run private business. The directors are John and Ellen Pursuit who are selling their business to retire. For the last few years, their son Steven (an ex-partner of PWC) has been running the business and he will continue to do so after the sale. He has primarily been responsible for the growth and success of the business in the last few years. The shareholder of Pursuit is currently the Pursuit's family trust which will also acquire the shares in Getswift in the transaction.
